Rear brake pad inspection
Each brake pad is provided with a wear indi-
cator groove. The indicator grooves allow
checking of brake pad wear without disas-
sembling the brake. Apply the brake and in-
spect the wear indicator grooves. If a brake
pad is worn to the point that the wear indicator
groove is almost in contact with the disc plate,
ask a Yamaha dealer to replace the brake
pads as a set.
